From time to time I like to peek in on this broker's site to kill an hour or two trading. Among the pleasant features I'd highlight fixed spread and honest payments, but everything else is just like other companies of this sort, not to say that that's bad, but it doesn't distinguish this broker for sure.

My experience with IFC started a year ago, with a demo account for a month, and after practicing I started trading in small amounts just to spend some time usefully and profitably. So far I noticed only polite and transparent service, fast execution of orders, which is quite important

Started trading with IFC because of PQM method. A very useful feature that allows you to create a tool with reduced risks or increased volatility. In addition, everything works smoothly, there is no problem with terminals or funds processing.

I withdrew more than I put in on ifcmarkets. The conditions haven't changed, I'm trading as before. The deals I prefer to be in the long term, the profit from each deal is about 30-40% of the deposit. Everyone withdraws, no deal is cancelled.

I've got a trading account at IFC Markets. Tha platform I use is NetTradeX. I'm not much of a novice, besides I have financial aducation, and what has attracted me much to the broker is the possibility to experiment with trading tools new to me. I've made up a personal portfolio with different kinds of shares. During my first year with the broker the average profitability was around 45%, and I'm still searching for tools to make it ever higher.
